Focusing on process automation, this hygiene and food-standard HMI developed to strictly follow the EN 1672-2 certificate, improving reliability and efficiency for your operation controlling in the food, beverages and tobacco industry as well as in the pharmaceutical industry, fine chemicals, and other hygiene areas.

EN 1672-2 Certificate, No Contamination Anymore
“As an industrial automation expert followed the industry 4.0, we believe that this field needs to break new ground. So APLEX has been introducing automation into the specific industry, taking the new step toward food and beverage industry,” said Chad Lee, a general manager at APLEX. With APLEX outstanding food-grade stainless steel HMI, FABS series, you can keep the system working reliably against the sanitary risks based on Food processing machinery – Safety and hygiene regulations (DIN EN 1672-2 certificate and NSF/ANSI/3-A standards).

APLEX optimizes FABS series in accordance with hygienic design requirement, DIN EN 1672-2 and DIN 42115, Part 2, the European standard establishes the extremely strict rules and conditions for the food and beverage industry, the purpose in confirming the equipment is the best possible food safety. It ensures that the consumers will not face any health risks. Thus the front panel adapts SUS 304/316 grade stainless steel; IP66/IP69K rated water-and dust-proof, its perfect splash protection brings the great cleanability, and avoids contamination by foodstuffs.

By food-standard Silicone sealant material (CFR 177.2600), the front panel firmly sticks to Stainless steel frame to enhance the leakproofness. Also, adopt Silicone rubber seal strip (FDA 21and CFR 177.2600) that FABS series can be closely attached to the control cabinet to increase adhesion by minimizing grooves and gaps. This allows liquid freely to flow down its surface, and prevents the accumulation of substances.

Ready for Covering Your IT-OT, M2M Utilization FABS series combines with IT-OT system, bridging the Information technology and operation technology that gives the best in monitoring and control applications owing to its completed I/O interface: 2 x COM, 2 x GbE LAN ports, 2 x USB3.0, support DC 9~36V power input and operating temperature range of 0°C ~50°C (wide range -20°C ~60°C for option), and give more alternatives via APLEX expansion cards, TB-528 series to reach each requirement. It also supports easy accessible 1 x 2.5” SATA3 HDD for rapidly swapping as well as one internal full-size Mini-PCIe slot for expansion. OS support includes Windows Embedded 7, 8.1, Windows 10 IoT 2016 and Linux, and the communication network such as 3G/4G LTE/Wi-Fi/BT/GPS/RFID/NFC/POE.

FABS series creates the best scale for upgrading food and beverage industry in the era of IIoT and Industry 4.0, not only bringing your process automation a high performance, efficiency system but also safety, hygiene, reliability.
